Chapter 791: Startling Heart Mingyu 3

"Mingyu, what's wrong with you? Are you scared?" Kangxi became even more worried. He gently stroked Mingyu's cheek, trying to calm her down.

Mingyu still didn't speak. She turned her head slightly to avoid Kangxi's touch and asked in a low voice: "Who... are you?"

Kangxi was stunned, and an indescribable sense of loss surged in his heart. He didn't expect that the woman he had been thinking about didn't even recognize him.

"Mingyu! Don't be rude, this is the emperor!"

Minghui's voice was not loud in the noisy environment, but it was like a basin of cold water poured on Mingyu's head.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, please forgive me..." Mingyu lowered her head, her voice trembling, not daring to look directly at Kangxi.

Her embarrassment after falling into the water made her look particularly weak in front of Kangxi, and I felt pity for her.

He sighed and reached out to help Mingyu up, "It's okay, you were frightened."

Mingyu stood up with the help of Kangxi, but she still kept her head down, not daring to look at him. Kangxi's eyes fell on her wet clothes, and he couldn't help but frowned. The clothes were soaked and stuck to her body, outlining her exquisite curves.

The Thirteenth General rescued Ruoxi from the water, and the shore suddenly became a mess.

Ruoxi was pulled out of the water by the Thirteenth Prince. She staggered a few steps with the help of the Thirteenth Prince and suddenly started to cough. The lake water made her throat burn. She wiped the water off her face. Her originally delicate makeup had already been ruined, and she looked very miserable.

But even so, the anger in her eyes did not diminish at all, but became more and more intense. She stared at Mingyu, who was carefully supported by Kangxi, and pointed at her.

"How dare you! Who gave you the courage to be so presumptuous in front of me!" Seeing that this man dared to point at Mingyu, Kangxi shouted angrily, his eyes wide open as if he was about to spit fire.

Ruoxi fell to her knees, trembling all over. She was from the modern era, how could she have seen such a scene?

Kangxi's roar echoed in her ears like thunder, making her scalp numb. She realized that the man in front of her was not an ordinary ancient official, but the famous Emperor Kangxi in history! She secretly raised her eyes and looked at Kangxi, only to see that he was majestic without anger, and there was an imperial domineering aura between his eyebrows.

"I...I didn't know it was the Emperor..." Ruoxi stuttered, fear making her speech incoherent.

In modern society, the concept of equality for all has long been deeply rooted in people's minds. How could she be used to kneeling and kowtowing? But at this moment, facing the pressure from Kangxi, she instinctively chose to yield.

Kangxi snorted coldly, staring at Ruoxi with a sharp gaze: "Don't know? But you dare to be presumptuous in front of me and point at Mingyu, it is a capital crime!"

Ruoxi trembled, and mustered up the courage to speak: "Your Majesty, I...I dare not deceive Your Majesty. It was...it was Princess Mingyu who spoke rudely first, insulting me and...and my sister."

Kangxi smiled contemptuously, and that smile was as chilling as the frozen lake in winter.

"So what?" he asked back, his eyes falling lightly on Ruoxi, as if she was just an insignificant ant.

Ruoxi's heart suddenly sank, and a chill ran from the soles of her feet to the top of her head. Only then did she realize how pale and powerless the so-called "fairness and justice" was in a feudal society where imperial power was supreme.

She gritted her teeth and wanted to say something else, but was gently pulled back by the Thirteenth Prince. The Thirteenth Prince shook his head at her, signaling her not to provoke Kangxi again.

Kangxi was furious and ordered the guards: "Come here, drag this daring man away and give him twenty heavy beatings!"

Then, he turned to Minghui and said in a much gentler tone: "Minghui, I will take Mingyu to the palace to rest for a few days. I will send the imperial physician to take good care of her."

"Your Majesty..." Minghui wanted to say something, but was stopped by Yinsi beside her.

After Kangxi finished speaking, he bent down, picked up Mingyu and turned to walk towards the door. Mingyu leaned on Kangxi's shoulder, twisting her body uneasily, looking over Kangxi's shoulder and looking anxiously at Minghui, hoping that her sister could say something for her.

Seeing this, Minghui sighed softly and shook her head at Mingyu, signaling her to stay calm.

Kangxi held Mingyu in his arms, with steady steps. Mingyu leaned on his shoulder. The water stains on her clothes soaked his robe, but he didn't care.

In the Qianqing Palace, the imperial physician was already waiting. Kangxi carefully placed Mingyu on the couch. After checking her pulse, the imperial physician said that she was just frightened, but it was not serious and she would recover after a few days of rest.

Kangxi then breathed a sigh of relief and waved away everyone.

"Mingyu." Kangxi's voice was low and gentle, like the bass strings of a cello, echoing in the empty palace.

"You're frightened."

Mingyu raised her head and met Kangxi's deep gaze, feeling even more flustered.

"Your Majesty..." She stammered, wanting to ask, but not knowing how to start.

Kangxi didn't want to let Mingyu know his feelings so soon, but the pitiful appearance of the beauty at this moment made him unable to suppress the love in his heart any longer.

He gently stroked Mingyu's hair and said softly, "Mingyu, I love you."

Mingyu froze when she heard this, and looked up at Kangxi in disbelief. Her almond-shaped eyes were wide open, and Kangxi's gentle face was reflected in her clear eyes. For a moment, she didn't know how to respond.

"I know, this happened too suddenly."

Kangxi looked at Mingyu's shocked expression and felt a little uneasy: "You don't have to answer me now."

Mingyu's heart was beating like a drum, and she felt her cheeks burning as if they were about to catch fire.

"Your Majesty... Today... Today is the first time we meet, why..." She stammered, not daring to look directly into Kangxi's eyes.

Kangxi smiled gently, with a hint of doting in his eyes.

"I know you have doubts in your heart. Perhaps you think I am frivolous and abrupt, but my feelings for you did not start today."

He paused, as if lost in memory: "That day, you followed your sister into the palace, and I saw you from afar. You were still young, innocent, and as bright and beautiful as a flower blooming in spring. I...I fell in love with you at that time."

Mingyu opened her eyes wide in surprise. She had never thought that the emperor, who was so high and mighty, would actually notice her in the crowd and remember her every frown and smile in his heart.

Kangxi continued, "Over the years, I have been silently paying attention to your growth. Watching you grow from an ignorant girl to the beautiful and charming you are now, my love for you has grown deeper and deeper."

His voice was low and magnetic, like a spring breeze blowing through Mingyu's heart, making her feel numb.

Mingyu's heart was in turmoil. She had never thought that she would be favored by the emperor.

Mingyu's heart was in turmoil and her thoughts were in a mess. She didn't know what to do.

She is the eldest daughter in the family and has been taught since childhood to put the family's interests first. Now that the emperor has expressed his intentions, her every word and action is related to the family's rise and fall.

What's more, her elder sister is the Eighth Lady, and this relationship makes her feel even more pressured. She is not just Mingyu, she has the entire family behind her. She can't just consider her own feelings, but also the future of the family.

She just felt her mind buzzing and blank. Was the emperor's favor a blessing or a curse for her?

"Your Majesty..." Mingyu finally found her voice, but it was still as low as a mosquito.

"Your servant...Your servant is terrified."

Kangxi looked at her panic and felt more pity for her. He held Mingyu's hand and said softly, "Mingyu, you don't have to be afraid. Heaven and earth can bear witness to my intentions. I won't force you. You can take your time to think about it."

Kangxi looked at Mingyu lovingly, his eyes so gentle that they almost dripped water. His thumb gently stroked the back of Mingyu's hand, feeling the delicate and smooth skin.

Mingyu's usual arrogance and domineering attitude disappeared at this moment, leaving only the shyness and helplessness of a little girl. She trembled slightly, wanting to pull her hand back, but she didn't dare to, and could only let Kangxi's warm big hand hold it, her heart beating like a deer.

"emperor……"

Kangxi saw Mingyu's reaction and felt even softer in his heart. He understood how much courage it took for a young girl who had never experienced the world to accept the emperor's admiration.

He didn't want to force her, he just wanted her to slowly adapt to his presence and accept his feelings.

"Mingyu, you don't have to be afraid." Kangxi's voice became even gentler, like a spring breeze blowing through willow branches.

Kangxi's warm breath brushed Mingyu's ears, and she couldn't help but shiver like a frightened little rabbit.

Kangxi sensed her uneasiness and gently let go of her hand, saying with a hint of apology: "I am rude."

He paused, thinking of Mingyu falling into the water today, and asked with concern: "By the way, Mingyu, today...how did you fall into the water?"

Mingyu finally came back to her senses and her thoughts drifted away from Kangxi's confession. Her face turned slightly pale and her eyes flickered, as if she didn't want to mention it.

In fact, falling into the water was not an accident, but was caused by a dispute between her and Ruoxi.

At that time, she deliberately provoked Ruoxi, and her words were full of sarcasm and disdain.

In a rage, Ruoxi got into an argument with me, which then turned into a physical conflict.

In the chaos, Ruoxi slipped and fell into the water. In panic, he grabbed her and took her down with him.

Mingyu didn't dare to tell the truth, but she didn't dare to deceive the emperor either, so she stammered, "Your servant... Your servant was just having fun and accidentally fell into the water..."

Mingyu's voice was as thin as a mosquito, her eyes were erratic, she didn't dare to look directly into Kangxi's eyes, and beads of sweat oozed from her palms.

Kangxi frowned slightly, and his eyes swept across Mingyu's face sharply. He had been on the battlefield for a long time, so he could naturally tell the evasiveness in her words. This little girl was clearly lying.

Mingyu couldn't stand Kangxi's sharp gaze, she lowered her head guiltily and whispered: "Your Majesty, I...I had a quarrel with Maertai Ruoxi, so..."

Kangxi's heart melted when he saw Mingyu's guilty look.

This little girl was clearly the one who started it, but now she is crying so sadly. It really makes people love and pity her.
